Good experience. To get to the funicular you have to look for parking because near the departure station there is no parking. Doing the tickets on line avoids the queue at the ticket office although until the station entrance it is not clear that two lines can be formed. Once up, the scenic spectacle is' assured. The ascent takes just under 10 minutes as does the descent. At least once is worth the experience.

I highly recommend taking a trip up to Harswr Kulm. The view is absolutely amazing and the trip up is quick but memorable. As a Pittsburgher it is like our Incline, but a lot longer. A must when visiting. Make sure you bring shoes with a a good tread as it can be slippery with snow and ice.

one of the best places in europe. Was lucky enough to get a sunny day and it was amazing. In october it is not very crowded, but there still is a small queue. If you go in summer would definetly recomend to only buy one way and then hike down. In autumn its a bit too cold.

    Went on a weekday in mid November around 10am and there was very few people that came up with me. It was a big foggy the day I went but I still got a decent view of the mountains and lakes.

    Great view on top without pushing yourself trough a big crowd, good food and friendly staff and also some very nice hiking trails (in late November there's snow on top!)

  • Take in beautiful Alpine views from Harder Kulm, then cruise the crystal-clear waters of Lake Thun and Lake Brienz—all in one unforgettable day.

    Getting started

    Begin your day with a scenic funicular ride from Interlaken to Harder Kulm, the town’s iconic viewpoint. From there, soak in sweeping views of the Jungfrau Region and walk out onto the thrilling “Two-Lakes-Bridge” viewing platform. After descending, hop on a boat and cruise across the emerald waters of Lake Thun and Lake Brienz. Explore charming lakeside villages, dramatic waterfalls, and historic castles at your own pace.

    What to expect

    Harder Kulm

    Ride the funicular up to Harder Kulm, perched at 1,322 meters above sea level. It’s known as the “Top of Interlaken” for a reason—this is where the best panoramic views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks await.

    Features

    • Enjoy unbeatable views of Interlaken and both lakes from the summit.

    • Walk out onto the "Two-Lakes-Bridge," a spectacular glass-floored platform that juts out over the valley.

    • Capture incredible photos of the Bernese Alps from the Harder Kulm Panorama Restaurant.

    Lake Thun and Lake Brienz

    After your mountain adventure, relax with a boat day pass that lets you glide across two of Switzerland’s most beautiful lakes. Board from Thun, Interlaken West or Ost, or Brienz, and explore as much—or as little—as you like.

    Features

    • Visit iconic sights like the St. Beatus Caves, Giessbach Falls, and centuries-old lakeside castles.

    • Customize your day with as many stops as you’d like along the routes.

    • Simply sit back and enjoy the changing views of turquoise waters and snowcapped peaks.
